Bath repair in Cricklade, done in place
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We are frequently asked to fix snagging damage from a refit and rust spots around the plughole, in whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Common questions in Cricklade
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Are there extra charges for Cricklade?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What else we do in Cricklade
For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Cricklade. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One picture of the whole bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Repairing versus replacing in Cricklade
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Fixed prices from your photos
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Nothing taken out or refitted
See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes two to three hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
